  4. Re:Stupid question, maybe ... on iTunes Store Available in Australia Very Soon · · Score: 1

    I can't answer for definite, but it's entirely possible.

    Napster does exactly that. Here in the UK the Napster service costs £9.99 per month. In the US it costs $9.99. I don't know the exchange rate off of the top of my head, but the UK is much more expensive.

    Try and sign up for the US site however, and you're informed that you're from the UK and *must* use the UK site.

    HTTP proxies could help though....

    I hate to say it, but the new MSN search is actually quite good. It's what I use when I'm not in the mood for google. Also, the fancy features too it work well with Firefox.

  7. Re:I want alternatives to Yahoo and Google. on Yahoo Fights Back in Battle With Google · · Score: 1

    Is it an alternative search engine, or an alternative 'portal' site that you would like?

    Don't forget that there's always MSN, although most of their services leave much to be desired.

    http://alltheweb.com/ is an excellent search engine, IMO, though lacks all the extra features that we have come to expect from this sort of company.
